  1.  

    Inspired by a paper origami kaleidocycle, various Lego versions were created.
    In contrast to the kaleidocycles I have built so far, the construction folds up and down as it rotates. One version requires a central axle ring around which the joints rotate. The second version stabilizes itself with the help of rubber connectors

  2. Spinning spiral roller coaster

    The track consists of a central lift system and rails with two counter-rotating spirals.
    The exciting thing in this case is that the rails revolve around the lift.
    Rails and lift can be driven separately.

    I've seen a coaster spiral lift at @MasaoHidaka in the past.
    The Lego Idea project by @nachpon lego then completely inspired me to build this lift mechanism into a spiral sculpture.

    Actually I wanted to recreate the kinetic sculpture "Wonder" by Tom Lawton....but that will be another project.

  3. What was supposed to be a ship swing, has now become this man on the swing.
    At first he didn't want to move at all. Therefore: "I need a push".
    Only after many failed attempts do I have the right mixture of frequency, swing length and weight of the legs.
    Since the motor can be continuously controlled via bluetooth, it was then easy to get the man into the right rhythm.
